Patient Feedback

My appointment was excellent with Dr Sameer Sighakoli. A very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional man. He did a thorough consultation and I was very impressed and happy with my experience. I am so glad that I have the opportunity to pass on how thankful I was to have my consultation with such a very knowledgeable and kind man.

My daughter who has autism attended an appointment at Benenden Hospital under the care of Dr. Sighakoli. She had an exceptionally positive experience. Dr. Sighakoli treated her with the utmost dignity and respect. He is a wonderful caring and thoughtful Doctor who involved my daughter in all aspects of her care and treatment. He didn’t rush her and listened carefully to all her symptoms and concerns. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Very good experience explained everything about the tests and listened to me and I felt very relaxed and happy with the examination.
